What We are Learning
Writing: In writing we are beginning a unit on non-fiction writing. The students will learn about gathering facts and using them in their writing. We will also talk about the differences between facts and opinions.
Language Arts: We are working on our guided reading strategies. This month we will focus on Tryin’ Lion (just keep trying), Helpful Kangaroo (It’s okay to ask for help), and Flippy the Dolphin (changing the vowel sound if needed). The students are working on reading fluency and retelling stories with a beginning, middle, and end; identifying character, settings, problems and solutions.
Math: We are learning about 3D shapes (cone, cylinder, cube, sphere), fact families, adding and subtracting fluency up to 5, decomposing/composing numbers to 20, ordering numbers to 20, and addition and subtraction stories.
Science: We are beginning to learn about the pond habitat. During this unit we will learn about frogs, toads, insects, and the season of spring.
